1t should be borne in mind that our
present emperor entertains very strong
feelings of friendship for the Russian i'm
perial family-feelings which have been
deeply rooted in him from his youth up,
so that only the most imperative circum-
stances would drive him to make war on
Russia, The crown prince on the other
hand. is very cool in his relations with
his Russian relatives; and for France,
under its present form of government,
he has even decided aversion He would
not pay so much heed as his father to the
petty irritabilities of the French. which
find expression in such various forms,
and it will probably be an injured suscep-
tibility of this kind which will afford the
outward pretext for the next war. The
crown prince, too, is said to be of the
opinion that war with France were
better to-day than later on.
In his wife. the crown prince has at
his side one who not only shares his feel
ings, but has always encouraged them.
She is the true daughter of her father
the prince consort of England-to whose
memory she clings with tender love, and
as such she can cherish no affection either
for Russia or France. Although in Prus-
STA the influence of women on the course
of politics has not yet made itself felt. still
it is not improbable that in family life So
close as that which exists between the
crown prince and his wife, and in the

the political opinions of the crown
princess sometimes fall on fertile soil.
